 DESCRIPTION
 -----------
-The `lttng set-session` command sets the current tracing session.
+The `lttng set-session` command sets the current tracing session of your
+Unix user to the tracing session named 'SESSION'.
 
-'SESSION' is the name of an existing tracing session. `lttng list`
-outputs all the existing tracing sessions (see man:lttng-list(1)).
+See man:lttng-concepts(7) to learn more about the current tracing session.
 
-The current tracing session is used by default when a session can be
-specified in other commands. See man:lttng-create(1) for more
-information about the current tracing session.
+The `set-session` command effectively updates the `$LTTNG_HOME/.lttngrc`
+file.
+
+List the tracing sessions of your Unix user, or of all users if
+your Unix user is `root`, within the connected session daemon with the
+man:lttng-list(1) command.
